Welp, Kirishima got a target on his back. However, I find this episode rather amusing with Masaya's character reactions. He has such a hot temper. I do think their past is kinda interesting.

Tbh, I hope to see more of Masaya in this show.

Masaya almost pushed Kirishima back to his old self. Good thing Yaeka was there holding him back. He gotten soft.

We got Sugihara's past. Excellent shoplifter huh, but wanted to be acknowledged on a proper level. Good thing Kirishima was connected to that antique shop.

The greatest adversary of Kirishima is still looming. Can't wait for more.

Things are moving in the background with some others trying to harm Kirishima.
The question now is when will the start moving to bother Kirishima with what ever they are planning.
Anyway the new guy was just another tsukomi with not much to him maybe he will play a larger role but for now it doesn't seem like we can expect much from him.

Yaeka almost has no role in thie episode, which is a good change of pace. I love that Kirishima attracts so many kind of guys in his life, it's Kirishima's yakuza harem!

Great episode! Well the idiot Masaya wants closure with Kirishima even despite being told by his father that for now he is on hiatus and a babysitter xD.
We got to see why Masaya hates him so much-he challenged him at school and he was defeated.
He calls out his name on the street and guess who is behind him?
Kirishima and Yaeka! Seems Kirishima doesn't remember him though...
Rei appears and remembers Masaya it seems lol. And because of Rei telling him about the scar he gave him on his face, Kirishima finally remembers him!
And Masaya joined the Yakuza because it could give him an opportunity to find Kirishima.
He is dragged away by his father to go to eat in the end lol.
Sugihara is meeting with president Gono so they can be associated with each other. Seems Sugihara accepted terms that Gono wanted...
But he knew it was a fake contract!
Godo insulted him so Sugihara taught him a lesson nano desu.
It was nice to see how he met Kirishima...Sugihara exposed himself being the shoplifter xD.
That was the only way he got praise so he continued doing it.
Kirishima praised Sugihara's tea and he asked him to allow him into the group.
And Godo was being used by someone...

Looking forward to the next episode!

Unleash the hidden beast that is the Kakihara Family's Hayami Masaya, out of jail and wanting to pound up on his old nemesis Toru.

His story with Kirishima is one of admonishment and admiration to one day surpass him, his Alpha and Omega. But to hear the yakuza gang member babysitting Yaeka, he can't help but falter in reality of what he's actually seeing right in front of him. Rei has to come in unnoticed, and that sets the introduction between Kirishima and Masaya reunited since their school days 13 years later. For someone who's been seeking the demon, the Yakuza Crusher his whole life, it's certainly baffling to see Kirishima's life turned around thanks to babysitting.

Sugihara as a replacement for Kirishima, goes on an appointment with President Kono to sign a fake agreement, and he's more than capable on his own of being a Yakuza member and Kirishima's right-hand man. But to hear himself being Kirishima's "shadow", through Sugihara's backstory of him being a shoplifting loneman that has no need for family, to only then be spotted by Kirishima, life's been a wreck for young Sugihara whom more than anything, wants to be praised and complimented. And that's how his life too is changed by Kirishima.

Mashiro is just vying for time to use people to gather intel from people used as tools about Kirishima, and trouble soon is brewing up.
But first, brew some tea for Kirishima, and Sugihara will forever wept in disappointment because he doesn't remember. Oh well...

Damn dude, Kirishima in his school days was kind of intense. Dude beat Masaya’s ass with a rock lol. Kirishima just popping up behind Masaya was pretty funny. The Kakihara group are all a bunch of characters lol. Their boss especially! Dude almost got his whole crew wiped out when he asked to borrow Yaeka haha.

Kirishima back when he first joined up was a scary dude. Guy just went around wiping out crews? Beastly. I guess Masaya reminded him of the “old him” and not who he is now. Yaeka saved Masaya’s ass lol.

Kei is a lot sharper than he seems. He might act like a goofball, but he’s not someone to be taken lightly. Kono should have listened before Kei had to rearrange his face. And now Mashiro’s got him. Well, he’s done for.

I liked seeing how Kei and Kirishima first met. I really thought he was gonna be in trouble there for a second. Glad to see that wasn’t the case. He’s loyal to Kirishima, I respect that.

That last shot was so cute. So I guess that’s why Yaeka wanted Kirishima to model for her. What an adorable drawing! Anyone else think Kirishima looked a little like Yotsuba from “Yotsuba&!”? Lol

Glad nothing bad happened this episode. Last week’s preview had me worried that mashiro would pull something today. He’s still out there plotting tho.

I enjoyed seeing kei’s backstory and how he and Kirishima met/ became friends. On the surface they seem like they don’t have much in common but they really work so well together and are a good team.

Lots of looks into the past this episode, which I always very much enjoy. Masaya trying to fight Kirishima was hilarious. Like a frustrated little kid trying to fight someone twice his size. But its actually just that Kirishima doesn't remember anything at first. Masaya has this huge grudge against Kirishima stemming from even their middle school days. Kirishima giving him that crazy scar with a rock to the face. Masaya wanting to get revenge against someone so strong, even becoming a yakuza himself over the years just for the hope of running into Kirishima again. When he finally does in this episode things don't go as planned. Kirishima not remembering on top of Rei interrupting and wanting to reminisce. Masaya is a bit of a loose cannon but nothing Kirishima can't handle. I loved seeing the backstory of how Sugihara and Kirishima meet. Sugihara being a shoplifter as a kid and stealing from a shop under Kirishima protection. Sugihara wanting to be taken in after he's finally praised for something after being admonished his whole life. I love the found family element to their friendship. Yaeka drawing is right, Kirishima and Sugihara are best friends.

The Sugihara backstory was nice to see, knowing how he and Kirishima originally got together definitely adds more to the relationship we see in the present, and man Sugihara can be pretty badass when he wants to be lol.

And Masaya definitely has no chill, but I really liked the backstory between him and Houjou and Kirishima, even if it wasn’t so pleasant lol, but being a few weirdos who happened to become friends definitely fits the bill for one friend group of mine. I also liked how Kirishima buying Yaeka colored pencils came full circle at the end of the episode when it showed that drawing of Kirishima and Sugihara as best buds, that was sweet for sure.

Masaya and Toru had a reunion...if Yaeka wasn't there I wonder what damage Toru will inflict on Masaya. Also Sugihara's past, he's more than just a right hand man, he can make some good cha and steal some of your stuff.

Side character backstories time. And it landed quite well. That other villainous guy is still plotting though.

Seeing Yaeka stop the fight between Hayami and Kirishima made me wonder if Yaeka ever saw a violent fight happen in front of her before.

Would probably be really traumatic for a child to see blood at such a young age.

That flashback where we see a stone-faced Kirishima just hitting Masaya with a rock (no pun intended) surprised and not surprised me at the same time ajsjkdas that must have hurt A LOT. Kirishima's 「うるせーなお前」ahhh Hosoya Yoshimasa's voice, really.... Yaeka/Kirishima whispering to each other is amusingly cute

It was nice knowing Sugihara's backstory, and also nice that we get to see how he is when he works alone.

Still clueless what Mashiro's intentions are.

Are all yakuza bosses that hot? Lol Anyway, Kakihara is actually pretty funny

I loved the whole thing with the Masaya guy, although is always crazy seeing Kirishima's cold-blooded side.

Masaya did not believe that Kirishima had changed, and just happens to meet him walking with Yaeka. Kirishima did not remember, but Rei remembered him, since they were "The Squad" xd.
If it wasn't for Yaeka, Kirishima would do something to him, but Masaya was still taken away.
On the other hand, Sugihara had to take care of something, and we see that he also has his "violent side". And also how he met Kirishima and joined the Yakuza.
Mashiro was that guy's name, keep gathering information.
Good chapter.

That Masaya really has PTSD because he got totally rekt by Kirishima back then, while for Sugihara it's basically Kirishima that saved him from his life habit, that's a kind of funny comparison between those two but it's not the end of the target against Kirishima.

It was definitely nice to see Sugihara prove himself this episode. I kinda did expect him to get scammed by that Gono guy so it was great to see that I was wrong.

the other guys always say how kirishima really has changed and all that but literally the moment he was asked to talk to the boss (about yaeka for the first time) he was like he has been the whole show. nice and smiling

Kieishima runs into someone from his middle school. Kirishima defeated him before and can't recall his name. Kirishima has mellowed down. Sughihara shows his origin on how he gets to know Kirishima.
